The time-honored way of showing love in an Italian family is to offer food. Whether we're celebrating, mourning, happy, sad--if we're breathing, there's a table filled with great things to eat. Life's too short, so eat what you love and love what you eat.

Blue Plate Meat Loaf with Mushroom Gravy

I like to try out new recipes for meatloaf, so I was intrigued by the "Blue Plate Meat Loaf with Mushroom Gravy" in WW's Best Darn Food Ever cookbook.

**I would pack the meat more next time since the meatloaf did not hold together well when sliced
***************************************************TASTE NOTES
The meatloaf and gravy had excellent flavor, though as noted it was crumbly and slices didn't hold their shape well. We enjoyed leftovers without the gravy on toasted rolls with a slice of cheese. I will definitely make this again. I am not a big fan of gravies and sauces, but this one was delicious over a half cup of mashed potatoes.
